Day One

Day One-

So, It is the first day of March (the day I am to begin my own personal happiness project) and it is already proving to be much more difficult than anticipated.  Last week was reading week, and a group of friends and I packed our bags and headed to the Dominican Republic for a week of fun in the sun! Although it was a wonderful week, I am feeling stressed and behind because of the lack of school work I have completed over the past week.  To top it all off, I was too busy today to take an hour to myself.  I began the day with Capstone (which is an awesome class, but it’s always stressful thinking about that final project).  Then my best friend Nikole and I jumped in the car and headed to Oakville for an orientation at Sheridan College.  After the orientation, we met with a woman and looked through a potential basement apartment for September.  This whole day seemed to be stressful, nerve-racking and busy.  I have decided it would be best to take one more year of post-secondary to earn a Graduate Certificate in Public Relations/Corporate Communications.  Luckily for me, Nikole is interested in the same area of study and we have applied to some of the same schools.  At the moment I have been accepted to Niagara, Centennial and Sheridan (interview with Humber on Saturday).  This process has been very scary yet, as it comes to an end I am excited for the possibilities next year holds.  I wish I was able to make time today for myself, even if I just sat down and made a schedule for my schoolwork.  I am really feeling the pressure of these final two months and I am seriously concerned I will not get everything done.  Tomorrow I will try harder to think of this project at take time for my own happiness.  I have gotten into the habit of being busy, I think it will take time to slow down and think of myself. 

Wishing You Happiness
